Originally from Crookes, Doreen went to work making parts for jet engines in the Rolls Royce factory in Barnoldswick, on the border of Yorkshire and Lancashire, before moving back to Sheffield in 1944 to work in the Metropolitan Vickers factory in Attercliffe.

Doreen attended with her family and Michael recalled how she was 'very proud and grateful' that Women of Steel were honoured with a lasting tribute.

Of the four 'Women of Steel' who led the campaign, only one - Kathleen Roberts is still alive. Kit Sollitt died on New Year's Eve last year aged 98, Ruby Gascoigne passed away in October last year aged 95 and Dorothy Slingsby died on Christmas Eve 2016, also aged 95.

Doreen's death was announced just days after it was revealed fellow Woman of Steel Audrey Walton died aged 95.

Doreen's funeral will take place at Grenoside Crematorium on Tuesday, March 6.
